SOME of the cures for swine plague
published are decidedly amusing. Not
few probably belong to the dark ages.
We most often find these recipes in the
miscalled agricultural department Of
the political weekly but the editor of
the Southern CultiUdtor allows a CORES
pondent to perpetrate the following in
the April number of that excellent paper:
" Took a pint of strong red pepper tea :;
let it cool +; put it into quart bottle,
then put in common salt until it would
dissolve no more ; turned the pig on its
back, inserted stick larger than the
neck of the bottle, and drenched him
with the mixture. The pig was we'll in
five days" o wonderful germicide
Cable the news to Koch and Pasteur
But il the mixture had been admins
tered boiling hot, would it not have
killed the microbes sooner

Simmons Liver Regulator is

I had for many years been

from a combination of COM
plants, all the outgrowth
Of malaria in my system,
and even under the skillful
hand Of DR.. J. P. Jones, of
this city, I had despaired of
ever being a well woman

For CRAMPs.-A lady correspondent
of Health and Home writes: Take s
piece of unbleached cotton cloth that
has never been wet, heat il well by the
fire, ard wrap it close around the limb
OF part affected, and In a very short
time the cramp viii cease and will not
return as ] ong as the cloth remains.
To wear a piece OF cotton wick con
stantly around the ankle, will prevent
cramps in the feet. The other night 1
forgot to replace the cotton, and before
morning was obliged to call fo- help
and by replacing the wick was soon per-
fectly relieved. Such q simple remedy
is within the reach Of all, and I have
never known a single failure through
many years OF practice.

The art Of cutivating the Oporto vines
and frementine the OPorto Grape into wine
IN tuis country, and Of preserving the Grape
Juice fresh without fermentation has been
brought TO greater degree of perfection by
Mr.. Alfred Speer of Passaic, n. j., than by
any other person in fact, he was the pio-
neer IN introducing and advertising Native
Wines. He has purchased hundreds of tons
of grapes, besides his own vintage. Mr..
Speer's success has arisen from the strict
purity and valuable properties of his wines
for invalids and feeble persons, and his
reputation extends around the world.

PLAIN TRUTu.-We notice grow
ing tendency among young men of
certain class to speak lightly of women
whenever opportunity offers, Oftimes
you will hear the sighting remark, or
sly inuendo from the lips of some un-
thinking person standing on a street cor
neT. We have often wondered how these
young men would feel were they to over
hear such filthy and, many times, OBJ
scene remarks about their own mothers
and sisters. No doubt they would bring
the offender instant chastisement, but
who will bring the detractors of women,
who have no brothers or friends to pro-
tect them, to account 2 When defence
less women, ladies ID fact. are thus made
the target for obscene slang by young
men who desire TO be known as gentle
men, it is high time they are rebuked in
fitting terms of condemnation. To drop
a word which reflects upon the good
name and character of a man, may re-
suit in the loss of his position in busi-
Eess or 1uiD his credit, but these he can
recover again but to a woman her repu-
tatiOn is her all. An inuendO or sly in
smuation may blast her character, debaT
her from society and ruin her prospects
for her lifetime. 1t is cruel and con-
temptible in the highest degree to trif1e
with the good name of a woman, and
no young man who is worthy of moth
er or the sacred name of a sister, and in
whose heart turks the least spark of
honor or manhood, will be guilty of do
ing so. 1t is only poltroon, misera-
bic, contemplate coward who will stoop
so low in the moral scale.
